After weeks of housing, training and grilling 24 housemates, the 2011 edition of the popular Next Movie Star has finally produced Tamara Eteimo as the winner!
24-year-old, Bayelsa State-born Eteimo was adjudged the most outstanding and talented contestant in the reality television show after fighting her way through to the last eight. Tomiwa Kukoyi, Aisha Alli-Balogun and Vivian Egbon fell into second, third and fourth positions respectively.
Tamara’s victory, which was announced by Afro juju maestro, Sir Shina Peters, comes with a brand new SUV, cash prize and three movie roles. In addition, the Theatre Arts graduate of the University of Port Harcourt according to show organizers will be ushered, star style, into the Nollywood movie industry.
‘This year’s edition has been a unique one. It started right from the audition grounds; we were awestruck by the quality of talents we saw, their zeal, energy and courage were beyond our expectations’, executive producer of the show’, Sola Fajobi says.
‘Right now, I’m the happiest in the world. I’m extraordinarily excited. I knew my persistence, talent and hard work were going to pay off someday and I’m most grateful to God that it came through today’, an excited Tamara says.
Now in its seventh year, the Next Movie Star has churned out a number of talents like the last three Big Brother Africa winners; Karen Igho, Uti Nwachukwu and Kevin Chuwang Pam, Kingsley Ogbodo, Portia Yamahan, Enoch Hammond (Ghana), Avinette Sirleaf (Liberia) and Akio Precious Ilami.
